-Advantage of the strategy is that usually the Japanese would be surprised and unprepared for the U.S. to attack them and they would probably have a bunch of their soldiers wiped out. However, the Japanese bases could contact each other telling them to prepare for a surprise attack from the US.

-the disadvantage of the plan were that although America had more warships than japan, japan was better equipped and seasoned to deal when a battle at sea. doing island hopping meant that taking on their navy also was a war of attrition.

Focus Q 3 - Why do you think the Japanese changed their approach from trying to win the support of the colonial peoples to acting as conquerors?

- it was Because the "Greater Co-prosperity Sphere" was simply a cover for pure unadulterated imperialism. The British, French and Dutch Colonial Systems were no panacea but, it was a very light hand on the colonies compared to the fist of the Japanese.
